Mandola:

1. Model: Alder #2 custom
   Maker: Weber
   Year: 2000
   Woods: Sitka spruce (top), maple (body, neck), ebony (headstock overlay, fretboard, bridge)
   Comments:
   1. The reason this is a custom instrument is its gloss finish.  The maple body on this instrument is strikingly figured and quite beautiful. Plus it's just a ton of fun to play.
   2. Had Bryan Kimsey reshape and refinish the neck.  He did a fantastic job.  I find Weber's gloss finish and neck shapes both a little heavy.
